(CNN) - Rielle Hunter is extremely upset with the three photographs of herself featured in the latest issue of GQ magazine.

The woman who was involved in a months-long affair with Democrat John Edwards told ABC's Barbara Walters Monday she found the images - two of which feature her without pants - "repulsive" and, Hunter also told Walters, she cried for two hours because she felt they were so terrible.

"When I asked, 'Well if that was the case, why did you pose the way you did?' She said that she trusted Mark Seliger, who she said is a brilliant photographer, and she quote 'went with the flow,'" Walters said on ABC's The View.

"She said that he took a lot of pictures, and thought there might be one like that, that showed her being sexy," Walter's continued. "When she was shown with her daughter, she was wearing her own t-shirt and sweatpants. The other photos of her with the big shirt are not her clothes, they were given to her by the photographer."

The images accompanied a more than 10,000-word interview with Hunter, who for the first time discusses how her now-infamous affair with Edwards developed.

Health Care for America Now is launching a $1.4 million ad campaign Tuesday.

Washington (CNN) - Proponents of health care reform Tuesday are launching a sizable television ad campaign in an effort to sway undecided House Democrats to get them to vote in favor of the legislation.

The $1.4 million ad buy was placed by Health Care for America Now (HCAN) in conjunction with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU); the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) and Catholics United.

"We're on the cusp of making history, and now is the time members of Congress must stand strong and side with us, not the insurance companies," HCAN's National Campaign Manager Richard Kirsch said in a statement. "The health insurance companies have unleashed their armies of lobbyists on Washington and have sunk millions into TV ads designed to derail reform, but Congress can and should ignore the corporate fear mongering and side with the American public."

HCAN represents more than 1,000 smaller organizations nationwide in favor of Democratic health care reform proposals and both the SEIU and AFSCME have long supported health care reform.

The ads will target 17 Democrats who have not publicly announced how they will vote and will run Tuesday through Friday– expected to be the final days of debate on the legislation.

Florida GOP Senate candidate Marco Rubio has kept a low profile on his tour of South Carolina.

Columbia, South Carolina (CNN) - A political fundraising trip doesn't typically generate the kind of buzz that Jim DeMint and Marco Rubio stirred up with their "Conservative Comeback" tour of South Carolina on Monday.

The Republican duo – one an outspoken Senator from South Carolina prone to irking members of his own party, the other a Florida Senate candidate and golden boy of the conservative movement – announced their joint three-city tour last month with a sleek Web site, DeMintRubio.com, that sounded suspiciously like a future presidential ticket.

Campaign aides for Rubio's opponent in the GOP Senate primary in Florida, Gov. Charlie Crist, accused Rubio of arrogantly harboring national ambitions by traveling to a crucial presidential primary state before he'd even won his first statewide race.

Aware of the potentially uncomfortable imagery of a hotshot Senate candidate glad-handing in a state known as a White House launching pad, aides to Rubio and DeMint were quick to downplay the trip shortly after it was announced, calling it a routine fundraising effort.

That concern was likely a chief reason why Rubio, the former Florida House Speaker who commands a healthy lead against Crist in recent polls, was largely invisible to members of the media during the South Carolina swing, which took the pair to Charleston, Columbia and Greenville.

Nancy Pelosi and House Democratic leaders are voicing optimism that the necessary 216 ‘yea’ votes needed for passage will be there.

Washington (CNN) - Even as a top House Democrat expressed confidence in passing legislation to overhaul health care, a new CNN analysis shows that opposition in the House of Representatives to the Senate health care plan has reached 200 members.

That figure is 16 votes shy of the 216 needed to prevent President Obama from scoring a major victory on his top domestic priority.

Twenty-two House Democrats, including seven who supported the House plan in November, have indicated they would join a unified House Republican caucus in opposing the Senate plan, which that chamber passed in December with the minimum 60 votes.

CNNMoney: Dodd: Time to reform Wall Street is now

Washington Post: House may try to pass Senate health-care bill without voting on it
After laying the groundwork for a decisive vote this week on the Senate's health-care bill, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested Monday that she might attempt to pass the measure without having members vote on it. Instead, Pelosi (D-Calif.) would rely on a procedural sleight of hand: The House would vote on a more popular package of fixes to the Senate bill; under the House rule for that vote, passage would signify that lawmakers "deem" the health-care bill to be passed.

Politico: Democrats: Store closed for health care reform deals
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is playing hardball with her rank and file in the run-up to an historic health care vote. Instead of the typical wheeling and dealing to pick up much-needed support, Pelosi and her leadership team are warning members that the bill is final, and its language is set, so don’t come seeking major changes or handouts for your district. Asked if she was willing to change the final legislation at the request of Democratic holdouts, the speaker said, “No.”
